Molka

'Monika Kim is one of the best of horror's new wave. Molka is desperate, brutal, and heart-wrenching, filled with horrors both human and supernatural. A vengeance-fueled must-read from the brilliant author of The Eyes are the Best Part!' -- Christopher Golden * New York Times bestselling author of Road of Bones and The Night Birds *
'Molka is a harrowing, ghastly, page-turning revenge tale that unflinchingly shines a bright light on the evil of an all-too-real, misogynistic, uniquely 21st century horror.' -- Paul Tremblay * New York Times Bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts *
'Violent, shocking, and utterly transfixing, Monika Kim returns with a skin-crawling and layered novel examining voyeurism, grief, misogyny, and female rage. Every bit as gruesome and captivating as her debut, Molka is a must read for horror fans who love seeing female revenge served searing and bloody.' -- Liann Zhang * internationally-bestselling author of Julie Chan is Dead *
'As brilliant as it is provocative, perverse, and deeply unsettling, Molka is the novel I've been waiting for...A rage-soaked interrogation of power that finally confronts our twinned cultures of surveillance and shame-I couldn't put it down. No one writes the monstrosities of man like Monika Kim, and even though this book lays bare the devastating consequences of nonconsensual voyeurism, I wouldn't hesitate to peek into Kim's brain.' -- Ling Ling Huang * Award-winning author of Immaculate Conception *
'With razor-sharp effectiveness, Monika Kim rouses the rage of being driven to madness by someone who then blames you for being mad, the heartache of learning that the person you love doesn't even like you, and the dehumanization felt by women reduced to objects by men who ruthlessly collect and consume. A story of betrayal and ghosts, Molka is a masterful work of horror that's sure to be ranked as one of the year's best.' -- Nick Medina * author of The Whistler *
'Razor-sharp, dripping with social commentary, and impossible to put down: with Molka, Monika Kim once again raises the bar for horror fiction. I can't wait to see this book get all the hype it deserves.' -- Johanna van Veen * author of Blood on Her Tongue *
'Brilliant with addictive prose and a knife-sharp message, this story is so full of cathartic feminine rage and I loved every second of it. Monika Kim's work has swiftly become a must-read for me.' -- CG Drews * New York Times Bestselling author of Don’t Let The Forest In *
'By turns eerie and disquieting, sad and affecting, bloody and demented, this feminist fable flays open the rotten heart of South Korea's patriarchal and economically unequal society. Monika Kim's crisp prose and careful plotting delights and disgusts. I couldn't put Molka down.' -- Ariel Courage * author of Bad Nature *
'Brutal and unflinching, Molka is a wild ride through a world of dark obsession, drowned ghosts, and long-overdue revenge. You won't be able to look away as this book cuts you to pieces.' -- Kylie Lee Baker * author of Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng *
'Molka is unexpected, harrowing, shocking, and, of course, brilliant. Combining feminist fury with creeping horror, Molka is the perfect novel to ignite your rage in 2026. Fans of Bunny and Promising Young Woman will love this.' -- Eve Kellman * author of How to Kill a Guy in Ten Ways *
